Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Great Yarmouth

Support people living with dementia to remain safe and settled at home in Great Yarmouth and the surrounding area. As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you work with clients who value patience, routine and familiar surroundings — helping with personal care, medication prompts, meaningful companionship, maintaining daily routines and managing changes in behaviour with kindness and respect. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is ongoing, locally based care rather than a single shift. You set your own rates and choose who you work with, when and where. Typical rates for this kind of role are £19–£21.50 per hour; many carers use £19–£21.50 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for live‑in day work as a guide. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than admin.

Working with people living with dementia in Great Yarmouth and across Norfolk is best suited to carers who bring patience, good observation, clear communication and respect for routines and familiar cues. You’ll be able to:

• Support daily routines and familiar activities to reduce confusion.
• Provide personal care, meal support and medication prompts as agreed with the family.
• Offer companionship, reassurance and activity based around the person’s interests and life history.
• Keep accurate records and communicate changes to families and other professionals.

Nearby towns we regularly support include Yarmouth, Gorleston, Caister on Sea, Acle, Lowestoft and Carlton Colville — many carers choose work close to home so travel is manageable.

Requirements to join are straightforward and honest. You’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not list a single role here: this page advertises ongoing self‑employed opportunities across Great Yarmouth and nearby communities.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days — then you can review client matches and choose shifts that suit you. If you’re used to agency routines but want more control over your rates and hours while keeping the administrative support of a service that handles contracts and payments, PrimeCarers could be the right next step.
